Not sure. The buff for defiance says that Wrath gives crit, but the tooltip for the Wrath buff itself says it only gives parry.

[2.0] In accordance with the raise in level cap, all job actions and parameters have been adjusted.

Wasn't this the problem with WAR at 2.0 launch anyways? Where using your Wrath stacks would lead to a direct drop in survival?

EDIT: Wait, that was increased healing. This is less problematic, you're likely to use IB which is a 20% incoming damage reduction anyways.

Its still Sam Regal I think? He just dropped his voice a little. Its good because I no longer want to brutally destroy Alphinaud whenever he talks.

I'm doing it right now. Assuming you can gather competent groups for the trials (maybe harder because goons are socking now?), I'd argue 10-15 hours if you went hard. 15-20 is a safer bet.

EDIT: What I'm saying is you could do it before early access ends. That's the important thing.

God I hope my download went through last night. I forgot to check this morning before heading to work.

Even if it didn't I'm on vacation all week next week. I didn't necessarily take off for Heavensward, but I didn't necessarily not either.

Supposedly the description was changed in the JP client, and states any target hit after the original three gets the DOTs at half potency. I wasn't able to test it in the little bit of time I was online this morning.

Scholars are some of the most pompous and pedantic people I've ever had the joy of meeting.
Managed to get a few MSQ finished before one bugged out on me and now it's saying to talk to Mayota again while the MSQ marker is above someone else's head. Talking to anyone involved in the quest gives a blank text box and apparently I;m supposed to confirm something with one of the NPCs but it's impossible to do so and even using a controller I cannot confirm whatever the invisible line is.

Fun expansion! :suicide:

Finished stormcloak before work myself. The quest wall is going to be a huge complaint for returning players. I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up hurting the game.
